Exchange Program: UK or Australia?

Hi! I decided to go on an exchange and I have to decide between University of Technology Sidney (Australia) and Leeds University (UK). I want to know which one will look better in my CV.

Neither of these schools are widely known outside of their country/region so unless you are looking to work in the UK or Australia, I would think that they are a wash for the CV. I would go with the one that you think you will enjoy more. If you are ever asked about it in an interview which do you think you will be able to speak more fondly about? If you like warm weather, Sydney would be considerably better. Do you want to be in a big or smaller city? Would you rather be going to Bondi Beach or taking a train to checkout London, Edinburgh, Manchester, Liverpool, etc.
